Today on the podcast, I flip open the Monster Manual II and speak about the Kech, a dangerous forest fiend in AD&D, highlighting their stealth, traps, and tactics in ambushing adventurers.
• ?️ Kech Overview: Rare, neutral evil forest fiends known for misleading and capturing humans.
• ⚔️ Combat Stats: Armor Class 4-5, 3 Hit Dice, and 3 attacks per round, capable of inflicting significant damage.
• ? Stealth Tactics: Utilize camouflage and ambush techniques, surprising victims 5 out of 6 times.
• ?️ Traps and Tricks: Set deadfalls, pits, and snares to catch unwary travelers.
• ? Mobility: Exceptional climbing ability (60 ft per round) allows them to navigate trees swiftly.
• ? Party Threat: Particularly dangerous for lower-level parties; can target softer members like magic users.
• ? Story Hooks: Great for creating engaging encounters, including rescue missions or coordinated ambushes with other creatures.

On today’s podcast, I’m talking about the army of darkness role-playing game and how it can be used to run an every day gaming session or a large campaign. The Cinematic Unisystem games often get overlooked and it’s a game I think more people should play.
